How can we not bring these children home?

[FredaFrogspawn]

British children, orphaned- not their fault they are where they are. This is so distressing. Why aren’t they being brought home?

Who is going to go and get them is the main problem.
No, it's not fair for them, but it's also not fair for us to send anybody into a war zone to rescue them and bring them home.

There are plenty of people in that war zone already who could help get them out. It needs someone to coordinate it.

Agreed.

Nowhere in that article or video does it say they can't be brought home. I'm not sure where you're getting that from?

It says the BBC has made the British govt aware of their whereabouts so that citizenship can be established / relatives found and they can be brought home.

Without that though I'm not sure the British govt has the power to just start taking people out of other country's camps.

Yhe little girl can't remember the name of her grandmother. Hopefully someone will recognize them from this and bring them home.
